Why did Candide move to Salomon?? I thought dynastar were treating him pretty will with his own pro model which performs as well as he skis

======================

Pikachu is a homosexual
 
its all about the money. he got $350 000 for going to solomon. I can't see many people turning down that much money to keep their own pro model.

someone find the messanger, and don't forget to shoot.
 
the three phils still own so it dont matter, and mikael, im not even gonna go there

yeah they will be right, the phils are so dominant, they have an aussie guy called Luke Hassart he is heaps good aswell. But back to candide I think most people would change for $350000, was a bit of a change up, I think it was for the best.

ever wonder if iliterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup???
 
what the fuck i thought that skiers made like less then 20k from there ski sponsore

'pro - peagna? What the fuck is that?' - my friend looking at my Propaganda DVD (he's not to bright)

'nah im still going to ski, im just going to board when im... bored...' darryl hunt
 
HOW MUCH ??? Crying OUT LOUD, I would switch for that fat wad. I thought those guys brought in about a quarter of that. no wonder Tanner can afford a house near Squaw Valley.

 
he actually got $350,000 or did you mean $35,000? either way it would be sweet to get paid to ski and candide kicks ass, so he should be getting paid

Don't drink and park, accidents cause people.

 
naw dude hes with the french sector of salomon and yeah its something like 350,000 but thats over like a 3 or 4 year term.

sacrifice, to some its just a word, to others it is a code, what matters is the colony, he is willing to live for the colony, fight for the colony, die for the colony.

 
I dont understand Candide...he is trying to capitalize on the sport. He is only allowing private filming of him, and he is going to sell the segments to various ski film companys...so that he can control what is done with his skiing. I think its stupid, the sport is turning into people just trying to make money...and ultimatly greed.

Don't pull that, its all about money crap...cause everyone knows thats how the world works. If you had the chance to make a living through skiing you would...and making a living means money.

 
that smoking thing is funny cos mickael burns a lot and they now have him on the world team... but they still have one of the strongest allround teams out there so candide going is a shibby but not the end of the world.

I mean the 3 phils, mickael, critchon, nobis and chicerit for big mountain, plus a whole bunch of locally famous guys that rip, they are strong still...

--Peace Out--
 
If that weed thing is true that's bullshit. Candide has been getting it done high or sober for as long as I've known his name and he should damn well keep smoking the sweet cheeba! Way to stick it to the man Candide!

 
350k over 3 to 4 years i can understand but for just 1 year thats bs

'pro - peagna? What the fuck is that?' - my friend looking at my Propaganda DVD (he's not to bright)

For the record...350 000 is not the number... but it is a rediculous number which no one really needs to know...anyway the weed smoking thing is totally false. He brings his filmers with him because he wants control over the artistic style of his segments and wants to have them around as much as possible. As well as they are his friends. The fact that he is selling the footage to the other production companies is completely normal and in no way greedy. It costs a fuckload for footage and too pay a cameraman...the price is only the same as the price for pbp to employ a cody rasig to shoot this or that...candide does not make money from the sale of his footage..excluding rastarfaride etc...but thats a different story.

Candide is making intelligent and mature business decisions...thats what it is now a business. It's a busnisness that we all love.

good point reedy, i can see how he would want his segments to be exactly how he wants them, its smart what hes doing.

Even if that was $350 000 per year, that is not ridiculous at all really for Candide. He will make Salomon alot more money than that.

Pro boarders line Peter Line, JP Walker, Jussi, are pulling in like $600 000 to $700 000 a year. Shaun White is making close to $1 000 000 a year.

More pros better start making that kind of money.

anyone who can fucking do a corked 5 liek 50 feet in the air over a 120 footr jump deserves that much money, candide rips shit up dawg

What the hell were they doing with a car on the moon?... havent they gone far enough?
 
not to mention adding a spread eagle to the cork five and 2 grabs

This is fuck'n burgertime bitch and this is fuck'n omar, so sit back grab your dick with a motherfuckin Gangsta

grip, cuz this shit is for rizzle my nizzle

il lâche son grab et tourne la tête en direction du

landing pour enchaîner la deuxième phase du 360°.
 
thats bullshit shawn white is making 1 000 000 a year. 1 million, you are definatley smoking to much crack. dude thats the salaries of progolfers and hockeyplayers, NOT skiers and snowboarders.

sacrifice, to some its just a word, to others it is a code, what matters is the colony, he is willing to live for the colony, fight for the colony, die for the colony.

 
Actually man, it is YOU who is smoking the crack and perhaps a side dish of pole...

Bode Miller (a ski racer for heavens sake) has a 1 million dollar contract with rossignol for skis and bindings only...Sean white makes more than a million a year, as does JP Walker, as does Tony Hawk, as does Kelly Slater, as does Tim Curran, as does Chad Muska...the list does go on. Nobody in freeride skiing right now is making millions...but there are a few at the top making good 6 figure salarys...and rising.

I don't want to confuse you guys though, most pro skiers dont make much more than 20-30 thousand a year...
